Protests Explode in Colombia, Leaving At Least 24 Dead
TEHRAN (FNA)- A teenager was shot to death after kicking a police officer. The young man was bleeding out on the street as protesters shout for help. Police officers then started firing on unarmed demonstrators. Colombians demonstrating over the past week against the poverty and inequality that have worsened the lives of millions since the Covid-19 pandemic began have been met with a powerful crackdown by their government, which has responded to the protests with the same militarized police force it often uses against rebel fighters and organized crime.
